<strong>Long</strong> Train Test Bench “landscape”<br />
Moreover, to allow simulation of “mixed brake pipe” trains, an additional brake pipe Ø 1” has been<br />
added in <strong>the</strong> structure for a fur<strong>the</strong>r length of 1246m, still developed with horizontal loops.<br />
Both <strong>the</strong> brake pipes loops are built of linear segments 5m. long, linked toge<strong>the</strong>r with different<br />
connection types, which function is ei<strong>the</strong>r to simulate <strong>the</strong> flexible hose inter-wagon connection,<br />
ei<strong>the</strong>r to allow <strong>the</strong> insertion of <strong>the</strong> wagons brake packages. This structure allows <strong>the</strong> creation of<br />
different wagon lengths (modulo 5m.), as well as <strong>the</strong> creation of a variety of train compositions.<br />
The brake package for each wagon is built of <strong>the</strong> following components:<br />
brake cylinder with variable stroke<br />
distributor valve with control reservoir<br />
auxiliary reservoir<br />
The following list of distributor and related components is available, for a total of 132 vehicles:<br />
n° 45 SAB WABCO type W-U<br />
n° 38 SAB WABCO type C3W<br />
n° 29 Oerlikon type ESTGP<br />
n° 4 Knorr type KE 2d SL-D<br />
n° 4 Knorr type KE 2d SL-ALB/d8<br />
n° 4 Knorr type KE 2d SL-ALD<br />
n° 4 Knorr type KE 1d SL<br />
n° 4 Knorr type KE Od KSL n 6d<br />
The following list of Driver’s Brake Valve is available :<br />
SAB-Wabco “Wabcotrol Unificato” with electronic control, developed and implemented on<br />
“Trenitalia” specifications.
